World Famous For Fun and Friends

The Green Tortoise's accommodating staff can arrange tours to explore the city or make suggestions for independent travel. An extensive information board lists what to see and do and how to get around.

Pike Place Market is famous for fish-throwing, fresh local produce, bakeries, flower shops, cafes, the original Starbucks location, and dozens of ethnic food stalls and restaurants. This colorful neighborhood is also one of the city's safest, and our hostel is a close walk to such famous landmarks as Seattle Center (where the Space Needle and the Experience Music Project *AKA the Jimmy Hendrix museum * are located), Pioneer Square, the Waterfront, the Washington State Ferries to nearby communities, Capitol Hill, and Queen Anne.

Coming to town for a live music show? Come check us out -- we're located pretty much in the heart of the live music scene with venues like the Crocodile Cafe, the Showbox Theater, the Paramount Theater, and the Moore Theater all just blocks away from us.
The Green Tortoise Hostel offers the best value for your dollar. All of our prices include taxes. We also offer free breakfast, 9 free high-speed Internet access terminals, and free dinner on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. We also sell discounted tickets for movies and the Experience Music Project (you save $6).

  1. Gaby From Netherlands On November 30, -0001

    Great value for your money, especially since they serve breakfast every morning. The location is great, but I didn't like that you can't park your car in front to unload the bags (I had a few). I had to park in the Target parking for that. And a lot of stairs to haul my luggage up. The room was very clean. You could see staff did everything to keep the place clean. I didn't like the hardness of the bed. I prefer softer ones.

  2. Jayme From USA On November 30, -0001

    Family friendly helpful staff great location we loved it!!

  3. Jennifer From USA On November 30, -0001

    The location of this hostel cannot be beat. It's so conveniently located to major attractions (across the street from Pike Place Market, and easy tram ride to the Space Needle, EMP museum, Chihuly Gardens, etc.) and convenience (next door to Target). The staff was friendly and pretty helpful. Cleanliness was better than I expected for a hostel (the hostel was cleaned once a day), and most of my rating for cleanliness has to do with the actions of fellow guests. I would stay there again.

  4. Graham From Scotland On November 30, -0001

    Great friendly place and staff eager and keen to help
  5. Ara From South Korea On November 30, -0001

    Location is perfect & Clean & staffs are kind, but not too much. and as per changed their new rule, breakfast is so small, even no bread. Shower room is enough, but i couldn't close my room window.. But location & room rate is great :)
  6. Jenna From USA On November 30, -0001

    This was my first experience in a hostel and it was amazing. The staff are welcoming and helpful and the location couldn't be better. Although shared on a hallway, the bathrooms are single occupant (and upgraded with a glass shower). I loved everything about my experience. Will DEFINITELY recommend/stay again!

    This is hands-down one of the best hostels I have ever stayed at, second only to Tokyo International. It's affordable, in a great location, free breakfasts, clean and spacious bathrooms, friendly staff, the whole nine yards. I can't recommend them enough.
